Default #BRODOZER - Class 3 F350 - Diesel brothers rock buggy Replica

So I've just been drooling over this truck since I saw the first pic on Facebook. Plus with the videos of it at Moab doing some of the trails, I had to dive into a new build. To be honest, I've been waiting for something to inspire me and this has.

It's going to be a full custom chassis and I'll be converting a Pro line f250 scx10 ext cab body into a crew cab to match the real deal. 4ws, 2 winches and a bunch of LEDs. If I get really creative, maybe even the speakers in the rear ;)

Here's the real deal.







The parts list gets crazy with this thing.....
Lots of new parts as I'm not parting out one of my other rigs for once. Most are in order but still need to find money for he rest ;)

Chassis:
Cberc chassis rails - nice and simple and wraith skid mount already built in!
3/16 Dom tubing at 0.035"wall
3/16" Dom ss tubing at 0.02" wall
1/8" solid rod
Custom made by me
Wraith Skid plate

Suspension:
Prob the new incision ss link set...haven't decided yet...
Axial King 4" shocks for the wraith (plan to make my own fake reservoirs)
Rr10 bomber lower link mounts for more mounting options
Currie sway bar for yeti

Axles/driveline:
Ssd diamond f/b
Ssd pro chubs and pro knuckles f/b
Axial universals f/b
Axial HD gears
FI spoil or incision spools
Mip drivelines
Bombproof trans with HH ext output

Wheels/tires:
Rc4wd 2.2 military painted yellow
Rc4wd interco iroks or mickeys. The 1:1 has mickeys but they really don't perform to my liking. We'll see .....
CI foams of course

Electronics:
Castle bec's and mmp
Prob a tekin roc412 3100.....but maybe something bigger ;)
Trusty savox 1231 servos
Airtronics mt4 to get that rear steer on the lever
Castle sidewinder for winch control
3racing with locked up rc motor in rear. Maybe the same in front....or a cberc servo winch
Tons of maddog rc light bars... ;)

Body:
2x Pro line f250 ext cab for honcho. Cutting the back off of one to make a crew cab.
Luckily I work for Caterpillar so getting my hands on some Cat yellow paint isn't a problem ;)

Shooting for around 14" wb. Want to have it ttc capable as we're looking to hold one later this summer or fall. Also want to see if I can outdo my FJ40 in capability.

Parts start arriving this week!!!!
